Fixes #461. At the January F2F we agreed that the `projectionMatrix` attribute should remain a matrix to allow for more complex projections that include, for example, shearing. In order to dissuade applications from attempting to decompose the matrix into a view frustum, which wouldn't properly account for that, this PR adds text to the spec that explicitly states that decomposition is a bad idea and gives reasoning as to why.
